90% Home Loan

There is already equity in the property right from the start and so lenders are more relaxed with the terms of this loan. You will still need to pass normal credit guidelines and serviceability requirements to secure your mortgage loan. Do You Qualify for a 90% loan? In Australia, each bank and the non-bank lender has their own individual set of lending guidelines to evaluate your loan application. The trick to securing your loan is in choosing the lender that is the best match for you. To Qualify for a 90% Loan You Should Meet the Following General Criteria:

• The purpose of the loan should be to purchase, refinance or build property. Owner occupied or investment properties are acceptable. Debt consolidation and some other loan purposes can be successful on a case by case basis.
• You should have a good credit history. If you have a few minor paid utility defaults or other small defaults your application may still be approved; if your application is convincing in other areas.
• You have to be up-to-date with your current obligations such as rent, credit cards, and personal loans. Lenders prefer stable employment. Normally 6 months in your present job or 2 years in a similar job will suffice.
• Your income should be sufficient to cover the repayments of the loan.

This is Called Your ‘Serviceability’ If you have genuine savings of 5% of the purchase price you will be in good standing with most lenders. Applications with no genuine savings (where the deposit comes from the sale of an asset or a gift) will generally be considered if you have a decent credit history.
